Riverworks Art Center

Cultivating Creativity & Connection - Riverworks Art Center is a new art center offering experiences for the community (artists and all) of self-expression through the beauty, art, and heritage of Montgomery County’s Agricultural Reserve.

About this Organization

Riverworks Arts Center, a 501(c)3 non-profit, is a place for cultivating creativity and connection through the healing power of art. We create the resources and the space for self- expression and community engagement with three locations within the Agricultural Reserve, rich with culture, beauty, and artistic inspiration.        

Services/Opportunities

Riverworks Art Center offers weekly Open Studio Hours - Fridays from 12 - 4 pm 

There are 6 single benches and two large steel tables from which to work. The "Greenhouse" studio space is light filled, quiet and inviting with 3 single tables and a shared workbench from which to work. The "Home" studio has three large tables that can be pushed together to create one large table if needed. There is a large utility sink for wet work.

 

Bring your work and materials, come have a coffee or tea, and enjoy the space and community. Meet new people, have conversations, get support on a project or a piece that you are working on. Sign up if you want to be assured of a place, or come on by and grab a space available. No fee, donations always welcome! See you soon at the place to be for artists!
